Flat arches with 'hanging' masonry supporting the arena floor of the Colosseum: precise Roman construction using no mortar. Laid upon a frame that was then removed, the central keystone has held the bricks in place since the 1st century AD.

AO3 enhancer: some basic enhancements including reading time and the ability to block authors and tags
YOUTUBE
Return of the YouTube Dislike : pretty self explanatory
Youtube non-stop: gets rid of the annoying "Video paused. Continue watching?" popup when you have a video in the background
SponsorBlock: gives you options to skip either automatically or manually sponsors, videoclip non music sectors and discloses other type of sponsorships/paid partnerships
Enhancer for YouTube: adds some useful options such as custom play speed, let's you play videos in a window and most important of all, it allows you to make the youtube interface as ugly as your heart desires. I can't show a full image of what it looks like because i've been told its eye strainy and i want this post to be accessible but look at this <3
PocketTube: allows you to organize your subscriptions into groups
YouTube Comment Search: what it says
FINDING STUFF
WayBack Machine: you probably know about this site and definitely should get the add on. this allows you to save pages and access older versions with the click of a button. while you can search wayback using web archives, please get this one as well as it allows you to easily save pages and contribute to the archive.
Web Archives: it allows you to search through multiple archives and search engines including WayBack Machine, Google, Yandex and more.
Search by Image: allows you to reverse image search using multiple search engines (in my experience yandex tends to yield the best results)
Image Search Options: similar to the last one
this next section is pretty niche but... STEAM AND STEAM TRADING
SteamDB: adds some interesting and useful statistics
Augmented Steam: useful info specially for browsing and buying games
TF2 Trade Helper: an absolute godsend, lets you add items in bundles, keeps track of your keys and metal and your recent trades, displays links to the backpack tf page next to users profiles and more. look it tells me how much moneys i have and adds metal to trades without clicking one by one oh may god
IN CONCLUSION: oooooh you want to change to firefox so badly, you want to delete chrome and all the chrome clones that are actually just spyware and use firefox
Anonymous asked:
Do you think that sometimes Terrans get leftover quirks and instincts from their ancient animal ancestors? Like for example, Nearl getting hit with a bad case of Horse Anxiety, Gavial having to resist the urge to do the death roll when she bites into a juicy piece of meet, or Gravel digging an intricate tunnel system in the garden for enrichment, etc
It sometimes happens. Honeyberry likes to jump onto people from high places, Ceobe behaves half like a loving rescue house dog that used to be a feral stray, half like a feral dog (including eating mushrooms to get high, which is actual canine behavior and is what gave us IS1), Nearl dances like a horse, Indra seems to have a propensity for hugs, which is line with tigers being especially physically affectionate for felines, and this might be more of a personal thing that a species thing, but Olivia Silence is in fact nocturnal, like an owl.
I’d say it informs some aspects of certain individuals’ behavior, but it’s ultimately more in line with nods to the animal for audience fun rather than an important narrative-world building characteristic.
Gravel definitely loves digging around in the dirt
Sidenote: one of my favorite nods to animal traits are Gravel's swords. One short, black blade in each hand, mimicking prairie dogs short black claws they use for digging. They even gave her a two hit attack, alternating between each sword, with separate instances of damage. I love all the little details like this arknights has
